Credit card firms offer free credit scores "Discover, Barclaycard US and First Bankcard — have signed up to allow some 35 million cardholders to check their FICO scores every month at no cost. Besides those three credit card companies, more lenders are expected to sign up." http://www.rgj.com/viewart/20131202/BIZ10/312020004/Credit-card-firms-offer-free-credit-scores

Let's hope for some non-TU scores! I have Walmart and Discover...both TU.... I hope Chase sign on and furnishes EX or EQ, which they should since they hardly ever pull TU.

Yeah, but it'd compete directly with their credit secure product. Am guessing freebie FICO's will have to make a lot more market penetration for them to do that, or some other monitoring or ID theft site to be stealing all their users.

FNBO is offering a FICO '08 EX bankcard enhanced industry option, but outside of that think PSECU is still the only one offering one. I'd really really love to know what my EX risk v3 score is pre-mortgage app.
